The Walkmen on WOXY.com’s Lounge Act
-
Artist:
While you can subscribe to the great Lounge Act podcast, the folks at WOXY.com are also cool enough to split these sessions into mp3s for individual consumption (which I used to do a lot until people asked me to stop). The latest Lounge Act session comes from The Walkmen, who are in town tonight (Tuesday) [...]

The Walkmen + Here We Go Magic - Middle East (Cambridge, MA; Sep. 19, 2009)

Artist:
When voting for melophobe’s top 10 Albums of 2008, if I had known the staying power of the Walkmen’s You and Me, I would’ve voted it number one (suck it, Fleet Foxes!). The lush, loungy tracks like “On the Water” and “Red Moon” combined with the passionate, pummeling stand-out song “In the New Year” make You and Me a lasting favorite.Based on the sold-out Middle East crowd’s re

Track:
The Walkmens 2008 long-player 'You & Me' was a fine piece of art and perhaps the bands strongest release to date. We personally loved it (you can check our review of it HERE) with one of our favourite tracks from the LP being this exact song here, On The Water.

Album:
-
Track:
New York City transports The Walkmen first broke through in 2004 with a raging tune called "The Rat" off of their second album, Bows + Arrows.Drummer Matt Barrick's propulsive rhythms carry the track. His expertly dropped drum rolls punctuate the unrelenting beat, backed by the melodic rush of Paul Maroon's guitar and Walter Martin's organ. Hamilton Leithauser's vocals blister and scrape in s...

The Walkmen - You & Me
-
Artist:
-
Album:
The gritty howl of Leitheuser's voice has developed into a smoother, less harrowing cry; gaining a greater sincerity through his Dylan-esque mannerisms in his quips, phrases and adept observations. Lauren Down reviews The Walkmen's fourth outing.

The Walkmen
-
Artist:
[08-19-2008] The Walkmen are the best rock 'n' roll band on the planet, plain and simple. Sorry to have to break it to you so bluntly, but how this group of Bob Dylan disciples has avoided consistent mainstream attention is a mystery to me. Riding high on a strong four-album run, the quintet possess all the tools required of a slick r-n-r machine: A guitarist with a splendid ear for melody, a b...

New Beach House Video “Used To Be” and Tour Dates w/ The Walkmen
-
Artist:
Beach House have just released their new video (p4ktv) for "Used To Be" off of their 7″ single they put out this past October. The video, directed by Matt Amato, is a beautifully shot desolate western traveler that feels so distant from the chill in the air right now. Quite amazing though. [...]

[MP3] The Walkmen: "Canadian Girl"
-
Artist:
There is something about combining an echoing guitar, raw vocals, and deep percussion that D.C.'s The Walkmen do correctly. Their music is like making batches of chocolate chip cookies, rather simple to concoct but damn hard to perfect. Although I can usually only handle a few Walkmen tracks at a time, their latest LP You & Me (out Aug. 19th ) is a record that I have no problem playing str...
